I wrote this poem for someone very special that came into my life for a short while. I will never forget the gift of love he gave me. Hope you will find this to be special to you as well.
There is so much I want to tell you
So much you still don't know
Things that happened along the way
Seeds I began to grow
Deep feelings of pain and resent
That kept me prisoner of pain
Working through the cobwebs
I thought I'd go insane.
I wondered much like you
If only in my mind
Couldn't figure out my place
Fearing what I would find
Much love I had to offer
Only to receive more pain
What was I missing
Traveling down each lane
One day I stopped and turned
And realized in my own wisdom
The love I so often yearned for
Was love I had not given
Give yourself to others
With no expectation
Other than to have respect
Honor and participation
If only a moment we can share
I want to make it real
No games, no gimmicks
Just love I hope you feel
No promise of tomorrow
No pressure for your return
Just the gift you gave me
Is all I ever yearned
